CITY OF FORT WALTON BEACH
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
Date: May 6, 2008
To: Joyce Shanahan, City Manager
From: Missy McKim, CDS Direct
SUBJECT: Fort Walton Beach Annexation Survey Results
BACKGROUND:
The City Council held a day -long strategic planning workshop on January 20, 2004. Its
purpose was to determine the City's current and future priorities and to create shared
commitments among City Council, City staff and the residents about the goals and
strategies required to address these priorities. During the workshop, Council was
presented with a list of discussion topics and was polled to establish discussion
priorities, one of which was to offer Okaloosa Island residents an opportunity to annex
and find out why they prefer to annex or to stay an unincorporated area of Okaloosa
County.
Staff mailed out a letter with an enclosed survey to all Santa Rosa Island property and
kw business owners on July 2, 2004 requesting their input on whether they are in favor or
not in favor of annexing with the City of Fort Walton Beach and why. In the letter the
City requested the survey be returned by August 1, 2004.
ANALYSIS:
Overall 2,400 surveys were mailed out and 1, 022 were returned. Of the returned
surveys 5% were in favor of annexing, 56% were not in favor of annexing and 39%
requested more information. The comments received with the surveys are included in
the results. In general, most of the residents/businesses that returned the survey, were
concerned about increased tax implications.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
City Council review the results of the survey.
